People aren't just going to switch from Facebook to Google's new social networking site. People like what they are familiar with, and with the current user base with Facebook, they are pretty much untouchable right now, and will be for quite a while -- although they really do need to increase the security on their website...

Google needs to absolutely stop trying too hard at trying to take over the world
They already have the biggest search engine... what's not to like?

But how is that bad? It's so awesome having all your personal data centralized at Google. +they backup all your pictures on tapes so that you can always find them if you get rid of them! /sarcasm
I use Facebook and my privacy settings are in lockdown mode lol.
